World News
A community for discussing events around the World
Rules:
-
Rule 1: posts have the following requirements:
- Post news articles only
- Video links are NOT articles and will be removed.
- Title must match the article headline
- Not United States Internal News
- Recent (Past 30 Days)
- Screenshots/links to other social media sites (Twitter/X/Facebook/Youtube/reddit, etc.) are explicitly forbidden, as are link shorteners.
-
Rule 2: Do not copy the entire article into your post. The key points in 1-2 paragraphs is allowed (even encouraged!), but large segments of articles posted in the body will result in the post being removed. If you have to stop and think "Is this fair use?", it probably isn't. Archive links, especially the ones created on link submission, are absolutely allowed but those that avoid paywalls are not.
-
Rule 3: Opinions articles, or Articles based on misinformation/propaganda may be removed. Sources that have a Low or Very Low factual reporting rating or MBFC Credibility Rating may be removed.
-
Rule 4: Posts or comments that are homophobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, anti-religious, or ableist will be removed. “Ironic” prejudice is just prejudiced.
-
Posts and comments must abide by the lemmy.world terms of service UPDATED AS OF 10/19
-
Rule 5: Keep it civil. It's OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It's NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
-
Rule 6: Memes, spam, other low effort posting, reposts, misinformation, advocating violence, off-topic, trolling, offensive, regarding the moderators or meta in content may be removed at any time.
-
Rule 7: We didn't USED to need a rule about how many posts one could make in a day, then someone posted NINETEEN articles in a single day. Not comments, FULL ARTICLES. If you're posting more than say, 10 or so, consider going outside and touching grass. We reserve the right to limit over-posting so a single user does not dominate the front page.
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

They really want a world war 3
Israel does not want world war 3. They want to seize territory, establish regional hegemony, and build out their ethnically pure, fascist empire. All of that is terrible and they deserve to be wiped from the map for trying. They do want the US to fight their war for dominance for them, so they are trying to manipulate the US into ever more participation in the project. But, world war isn’t the goal.
Don't Israel realize that China won't accept the USA having another puppet regime that will give them more natural resources and economic power ?
FUD
It's not . Imperial China won't let imperial USA control more of the global economy
They are headed for global dominance anyway, they don't need this.
Major powers like China don’t simply stand by and let rivals control vital resources like Iranian oil, especially when those resources are crucial to their own energy security and global strategy regardless
They absolutely do, don't interrupt your enemy when they are making a mistake.
USA is fucking up badly, and ruining it for their allies too, China doesn't need to do anything right now.
China may use the distraction to help Russia more, but they will probably just use such opportunities, and silently take over where USA fails.
Iran has no chance of winning against the USA, and Israel wants the USA to get involved. China’s biggest enemy is the USA, which considers Israel a bigger proxy than Ukraine.
Yes that's all true, except I don't see how China would be behind Israel attacking Iran? The west is destroying itself right now because of Trump.
And here in Europe we are scrambling to find footing in this new reality where we cannot rely on USA anymore. But 100% Europe will NOT help Israel in this. And for now USA doesn't seem too interested either.
China is definitely benefiting, but I don't see any indications they are behind it.
I never said that china is behind israel attacking iran.
Just look at france,uk, germany, canada reaction to the attacks. They are blamed iran. They are still supporting israel occupations while claiming they don't
Yes you did:
No, i am saying that as a consequence of israel trying to change the regime. China could be forced to intervene
You hungry, buddy?
